Waite's Comedy Company.-The Cum
berland papers speak in the most COM
plimentary terms Of this company. A very
successful run of three nights closed there on
Wednesday. Notice also the following:
The rendition of "The Gold King by
Waite's comedy company last evening was
remarkably good the parts were well taken
entire play. This company is tirst-class in
every respect and cannot fail to please our
theatre-going people. Owing to the dis
agreeable weather the audience was not as
large as the evening before, but we predict q
crowded house tonight to witness the play of
"Ingomar. '-Piqua Daily Call.
The company is advertised for q run of
four nights in Ravenscraft's Opera House,
beginning Saturday, 18th inst.
That Percentage.-The pool arrange
ment includes only the coastwise coal trade; ;
that is to say, only the coal dumped into
vessels. The production of "Hal carried
to market by rail is not subjected to pool
restrictions.
The coastwise traffic, however, constitutes
the basis, and as such became the foundation
for an agreement to stop the ruinous com.
petition which has afflicted the trade for
years
If, therefore, this region obtains % per cent.
under the pool basis of 100000 tons our
allotment will be 400, ,OC0 tons. The all-rail
trade which we can command against all
comers will doubtless swell this large tonnage
and our work, instead of being diminished
as feared by many, may be increased. With
more remuneratiye figures it is confidently
believed also that our operators will erelong be
able to add ten cents per ton to mining wages.
The Danites.-This famous reproduction
of life in the wild and woolly west will be
given in Ravenscraft's Opera House next
Saturday evening, 18th inst, by Waite's Com
pany, of which we quote the following:
The beautiful drama of "Ingomar' will
be produced at Conover's Opera House to-
night by Waite's comedy company and
should be patronzed by all lovers of truly
fine play. This company have demonstrated
their ability to give good performances, and
this is their masterpiece. The plan contains
the most beautiful language and sentiment,
and equally pleases all classes alike. The
late John Mccullough was famous in the
role of "Ingomar' and favorable comparisons
are made by the press in Mr.. Waites rem.
dition of the character. Miss Nelson, as
Parthenia, the Greek maiden, is highly COM
mended. The costumes are Greek and
Roman and prepared especially for this play.
Newark (O) Adoocate.
